Hey fam, here’s what we listened to and played in the club in June. Some of these tracks were made by cats. Some were made by our friends, like that banger by our Shanghai-via-Harbin homie Zean on his upcoming EP on Push & Pull. Some, like that Ikonika bootleg, were even made by us (download it?).

Hey fam here’s our brand new tape of some classic-but-rare ’80s Hong Kong disco, selected and mixed by DJ 小卖部.

No tracklist for now, but some of the artists include 陈慧娴 (Chén Huìxián), 柏安妮 (Bǎi’ ānnī), and Raidas. Here’s the story:
“On the evening of Lantern Festival 2017, a Shanghai street cat named Xu Dongmei ate some tangyuan she found in the park and had a flashback to a dark disco night in Hong Kong circa 1988. The trip only lasted 30 minutes but she’ll never forget those neon lights…”
